About our non-slip bath coating in Langholm

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Langholm

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

What affects the price in Langholm

We charge the same across the UK, including Langholm. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No need to remove anything

Read our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Langholm

  • Acrylic baths
  • Shower trays
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Langholm

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas

Langholm questions

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you cover Langholm?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Langholm and the rest of Dumfries and Galloway. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
